French New Wave director Truffaut's advice to young filmmakers when announcing its large model: “Be insanely ambitious, and insanely sincere.” [I cannot confirm the quote. The Chinese translation is “务必要疯狂地怀抱雄心，且还要疯狂地真诚。”]
I tracked down the reference using DeepSeek-r1 with web search: the original quote is "Il faut être follement ambitieux et follement sincère pour que l’enthousiasme des prises de vues se communique à la projection et qu’il gagne le public."
